To make liquid-cooling as simple and sustainable as possible for everyone by approaching the process with a customer-centric mindset and continuously raising industry standards in order to solve the global issues of electronics overheating.
Our product is the liquid cooling system that provides simple, sustainable, more power efficient, noise-reducing and expandable solutions because by functioning as one and thinking like the buyer we are continuously elevating industry standards.
Why Alphacool exists?
To solve the heating problem in electronic equipment. The globe as well as electronics continue to heat up. We are uniquely able to innovate solutions on these pain points.
Futureproofing our users.
Energy needs to be saved and sustainable cooling products need to be created. We continue our quest to enable customers to save energy and solve the global electronics heating problem for all.
Guide with passion.
In 2002 liquid cooling systems were complicated. We set out to create more efficient and effective functionalities. Performance lagged in the industry, so we developed patented techniques to solve it.
Innovate continuosly.
The best quality, highest continuous innovation and service can only be achieved if we function as one: One company that provides in-house design and German engineering all the way to manufacturing and customer support.
Community at work.
Our vision for a workplace is a community. A place where people bond around shared values, feel valued as human beings, and have a voice in decisions that affect them. How we operate internally translates directly into building strong bridges to our business clients.
Developing and manufactoring premium quality and high performance water cooling systems. Our innovation has in two decades established industry standards. We strive for vertical integration of our development and design processes and manufacture within our own network.

2024+
The Future
With a strong push to dominate existing markets and open new ones, we never run out of fresh and cool ideas.
Unsurprisingly this setup cools amazingly well. I had a 20°C drop over air cooling on full load (going from around 82°C to 62°C and would recommend this GPU AIO for anybody wanting simple cooling solution without going through the aggravation of a full custom loop. Overall I think this is a kickass, inexpensive (relative) way of cooling your card.
u/terpmike28Watercooling EnthusiastWith the Alphacool Eiswand, you get a custom watercooling kit with no case fitment dependencies. Setup is incredibly easy compared to most watercooling kits and, to me, bridges the gap between full custom watercooling and an AIO unit for many users.
Austin MatthewsMechanical Engineer... particularly suitable for users who have larger multi-core processors such as the current Intel i9 series or the AMD Ryzen 9 or Threadripper series in use. We give our recommendation for a cooler with good performance.
Sebastian PsottaTechnical Admin & EditorTheir superb thermal performance combined with elegant design, and simple installation is too good to have. These blocks come recommended by us.
Nauman SiddiqueSenior Editor... the fin thickness of 0.4 mm, as well as the distance between the fins. In comparison to the previous model, one should to be able to achieve a temperature that is up to 10 Kelvin lower.
Martin GerkeRedactorWe have a good feeling that our Foundation waterblock from Optimus will be retiring, and that from now on the high-performance Alphacool Core 1 will be powering our test setup with the Intel i9-13900KS processor and the ROG Z790 APEX.
Jack CornerOverclockerThe Core 1 leaves our test with pride, having won our most prestigious award: "Choix de l'équipe" ("Team Choice).
Wael KadriModderCore 1 is a new, modern water block designed for installation in open-loop water cooling systems. With this and other new products, Alphacool adapts to current market trends and ensures customers achieve effective cooling for their overheating processors.
Krešimir MatanovićEditor-in-chiefIn Cinebench R23, we see a temperature difference of up to 5 degrees less on the hottest core, and even up to 10 degrees less in OCCT after five consecutive runs.
Martin HeitsEnthusiastLooking at the new water blocks, we can already tell that the simple, but eye-catching design is far different from previous Alphacool products.

“With speed over time you develop tunnel vision, blindness to your work. That keeps you from being innovative. The water cooling market is currently growing rapidly, but the road is long. We want to help reshape it just like we did in the early days."
